  • Perspective Motion Tracking not applying position?

    Posted by Joseph Boutilier on February 21, 2016 at 3:34 am

    I’ve used the Perspective Corner Pin tracker on numerous occasions but only now seem to have this issue consistently.

    I track 4 points for a perspective corner pin motion, select the desired layer to apply the motion to, and click ‘Apply’. It applies the Corner Pin effect and the keyframes to move the corner pins correctly in relation to one-another, but it doesn’t apply any Position keyframes and the layer remains static.

    ‘Position’ is checked under ‘Track Type’. It doesn’t seem to matter what kind of layer I select, nor the composition I’m working in.

    Any ideas? Thanks for any help!

    Just to cap this in case anyone else stumbles upon it on search: It seems it was simply a glitch of the program, resolved by clearing pref files/cache and restarting.
